Dave Groncki IS proud ;D Terrific work Jason and this answers my earlier post about whether you are now cutting. So you'll have to give me all the good info like for how long? What machine? What sorts of laps you're using? Learning on your own or taking lessons, etc...?
Given your passion for rocks and gemstones, seeing you faceting is a perfect fit! So glad it came together for you...
Dave
